I too have been asking myself this exact question. Originally I was small block all the way. The car will be used for cruising, shows, picking up the wife, etc. No racing really. When i originally planned the SBF, I figured with no power steering, it'd make the car more driveable on distance runs. Plus, I could drive the car long distances without paying heavily from the wallet on gas. Then things started to change... i was looking in the classifieds in the paper like always, there is a guy selling a 429 w/tranny and a 460 for $400. both would need rebuilds but I think in a 427 cobra.. the BBF looks better because it fills the engine bay so much better.

I dunno... I'm torn.
